Booked again for the end of Jan next year.

Heading to Niseko and Sapporo this time around.

Booked for later in the year, doing the usual Osaka-Kyoto-Tokyo trek but deciding if I should add Sapporo onto the end for something a little different.

I'm looking at two days in Tokyo (with two primary school kids).

What would people recommend?

If you haven't been to Tokyo before then you have to spend one day doing siteseeing tour of best of Tokyo. I would skip the fish market if you can avoid it and go shopping in Shibuya instead. There is a great Pokemon center and Nintendo store for kids.

If it is all about keeping the kids entertained, i suggest taking them to Disneyland for one day. And if they like Harry Potter, there is a studio tour you can take them as an alternative.

absolutely a must with kids.

Mine were 7 & 5 last year when we went

Its also a short walk to Teamlabs which makes it a good whole day trip

Ueno zoo.

Ueno zoo was ok.

The pandas and polar bears are cool as was the indoor reptile centre with the salt water crocodile

The rest of the park felt very cagey to me
